Karbonn partners Flipkart for affordable smartphone range

The range will include two Android JellyBean operating system-based handsets and two smartphones based on the latest Android KitKat OS.

"It is our continuous endeavour to make technology available easily and at affordable prices to the greater masses of India. In this digital age, we believe every Indian should have access to a smartphone," Flipkart SVP (Retail) Kalyan Krishnamurthy said in a statement.

These Karbonn phones that have been made exclusively for Flipkart customers are a step in that direction, he added.

Flipkart has a similar exclusive partnership with Motorola, under which it has launched three devices -- Moto G, Moto X and Moto E.

It has 18 million registered users and claims to receive 3.5 million daily visits.
